HARRISBURG — Department of Human Services (DHS) Secretary Teresa Miller reminded Pennsylvanians that public assistance programs remain available to families throughout the COVID-19 public-health emergency.
Programs include the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and other services established specifically in response to COVID-19 like the Emergency Assistance Program (EAP), the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Recovery Crisis Program, and the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) programs.
Each of these programs can help Pennsylvanians who have lost income or employment meet basic needs until they are able to start work again.
